A horrifying incident has come to light in Panama’s Atlantico port, where a dog has survived after being locked up for 40 days in a shipping crate, reports Tech2Mag.com
Stowaway gets a job
According to the news agency AFP, when the port staff found it, it weighed only 4 kg and it was very weak. After getting it, the Ministry of Agriculture Development not only took care of it but also gave it a job. After several months of rehabilitation and training, she now weighs 12kg and is completely healthy.
It was reported that “A part of the container was damaged and a small hole was also found there. It is suspected that she managed to make a small hole with her paw and drank rain water.”
A miracle!
According to ministry officials, “It is a miracle that such a small animal was able to survive for so long.” They said that, “That’s why we named her Milagros (miracle) or Mili for short. When she came from Spain, people called her the Little Spaniard.”
